The Taylor family name is synonymous with Australian and international rallying, a legacy spanning almost half a century. On Episode 32 of the Motor Dream Podcast, we sit down with Molly Taylor, the latest in this incredible motorsport dynasty.
With her mother, Coral, holding an unmatched six Australian champion navigator titles, and her father, Mark, an Aussie Car class champion, plus the legendary Norm Fritter as her grandfather, Molly was destined for greatness. She's not just a product of her environment, though; Molly has blazed her own trail, inspiring a new generation of female rally drivers.
Molly's resume speaks for itself: in 2016, she shattered glass ceilings, becoming the first woman to win an Australian motor racing championship as a driver, claiming the Australian Rally Championship for Subaru. Then, amidst the 2021 pandemic, she conquered the inaugural Extreme E Championship with Rosberg X Racing. Beyond these triumphs, she's tackled the gruelling Dakar Rally twice, launched the highly successful MaD Garage YouTube channel, and even found time for Supercars commentary and competing in the Race of Champions for Australia. Join us as Molly, fresh from building her 700bhp Subaru WRX nicknamed "Fabio", dives into her remarkable career, Dakar adventures, and her exciting preparations for the FIA Extreme H World Cup.
